Just what happened two hundred years ago (1809), this
July? Funny you asked:
--Indian leaders Tecumseh and Shawnee Prophet sought to unite Indians--
--Raleigh Star reported increasing demand for opium as medicine--
--New York Herald reported arsenic laced cider found in Baltimore--
--5,754 Cuban refugees reported in New Orleans in previous two months--
--Raleigh Star reported death of Thomas Paine--
Sure sounds like picking up this Wednesday's Webster
Republican.
Read about it, in this month's calendar!
